    Hosta ((hugs)) hopefully they'll sort you out image

    The garden has been full of birds this morning, lots of young blackbirds, blue tits and teenage starlings ......... was a bit like a youth club out there around the pond ... there's a big red ant nest at the side of the pond so that may well have been the attraction. 

    I'm off to visit Wonky in a minute ... loaded with cucumbers and raspberries (she has her own tomato plants) and also with a new woolly jumper and some woolly hats for work ... lots of knitting happened while I was laid up ... it's an ill wind and all that image

    Morning all.

    The sun is struggling to come out here and showers are threatened for later but it's manual labour today so that shouldn't matter.

    DL I don't know how long ago that was but things are a bit better now. image Belfast has young people and a thriving night life. image You should come again. http://visitbelfast.com/

    I don't see the point of a courgette. Maybe I'd be swayed if I tried it in a chocolate cake. My mum hid vegetables in everything. The only thing she discovered from that experiment is that I was like an MSGC when it comes to veggie detection. image image I'm better now that I'm all growed up and I only eat the veggies I like. Makes sense to me.

    Enjoy your Saturday all.

    I love eating vegetables. I could easily not have meat in my diet. Except - I'm married to someone who likes his meat, so we have a mixed diet and I always throw some extra veggies in for me. image. I particularly like my own home grown veggies.
